Here are 5 reasons why going after your Collaboration certification is a good idea:

You are one of a kind
Cisco created the Cisco CCNA/CCNP Collaboration certification to address a need in the IT landscape that currently has a minimal set of individuals with the expertise necessary to get the job done. Right now, and likely for years to come, you would fill that unique gap.

Collaboration is moving UP
Growing number of collaboration devices permeate the industry; from Android to iPhone to full-screen displays, collaboration devices are becoming ubiquitous, and so is the need to make them all work together.

Every business will need this
While collaboration holds visions of video conferencing, desktop sharing, and multimedia presentations, at the core of collaboration are technologies like Voice over IP, which is a “no-brainer” setup for every business moving into a new facility.

Collaboration without limits
Cisco has already released a track for CCNP, CCNA, and even CCIE Collaboration. This will NOT be a certification where you pass one exam and sit while Cisco develops the remainder of the track. You can hit the ground running and keep running until you gain expert status in the field. Also, there are no prerequisites for the CCNA Collaboration exam, so there’s nothing to stop you from getting started now!

New superpowers, backed by Cisco
Cisco online Practice Exam jumped into the collaboration space with both feet; you can be sure they are doing so because they see great potential in the collaboration space and you can bet that they will be implementing certified individuals with new tools and applications to help organizations communicate and collaborate on a whole new level.
